MASS-TECH® – More Protein, Better-Quality Calories, Bigger Results!New MASS-TECH® is an advanced muscle mass gainer designed for any individual that has a tough time adding size, is in their bulking phase and/or wants to break through their strength plateaus. Power-packed with 80 grams of protein and 1170 mass-producing calories when mixed with 2 cups of skim milk, this potently superior formula is enhanced with proven anabolic drivers for rapid mass gain and strength!

Better-Quality Calories Designed for the HardgainerMASS-TECH® is the most versatile weight gainer available, which can be taken once daily or split into two separate half servings. The new, powerful formula now delivers a massive 1170 calories derived from high-quality protein and quickly digested carbohydrates, as well as specialized fats.

More Protein per Serving Than Other Weight GainersNew and improved formula features an 80-gram multi-phase protein system, when mixed with2 cups of skim milk that supplies fast, medium and slow-digesting proteins. The multi-phase protein system provides critical amino acids to the body at varying speeds for extended delivery of amino acids in the blood.

More BCAAs and L-Leucine per Serving Than Other Weight GainersThe formula’s protein dose when mixed with 2 cups of skim milk supplies a massive 7 grams of L-leucine and 13 grams of BCAAs, which help fuel your skeletal muscles, preserve muscle glycogen stores and help to reduce the amount of protein breakdown.

Added Amino Acids for Enhanced EffectsBeyond the key ingredients it supplies, MASS-TECH® also provides additional ingredients, such as a 3-gram dose of L-alanine. L-alanine is the second most used amino acid after L-leucine in protein synthesis. It has even been noted to play a role in glucose production for useable energy. The formula also delivers a 3-gram dose of glycine, an amino acid that may help in the formation of many other biological compounds in the body, such as proteins and creatine. Taurine was also included as it’s the second-most abundant amino acid found in muscle, after glutamine, and aids cell volumization.

Build Strength FasterUnlike other leading gainers that contain little to no creatine, MASS-TECH® delivers a 10-gram clinically validated dose to increase strength fast.

Help Replenish Glycogen StoresSupplies 168 grams of carbohydrates through a multi-phase carb complex to both spike insulin, quickly shuttling creatine into the muscle, and promote muscle glycogen replenishment, helping to put the body into an anabolic state.

Formulated with Omega-Rich Fats

The full-spectrum formula contains less saturated fat than other weight gainers and is formulated with 5 grams of omega-rich fats, which provides energy-dense calories.

Get More for Your MoneyUnlike the competition, Performance Series products contain superior key ingredients in clinically dosed amounts that are fully disclosed so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Best-In-Class TasteEvery flavor won in head-to-head third-party taste tests against the leading competitors.

Pumping Up? How to Pick Your Protein Supplement

Our protein supplement guide will help you excel on the court, in the gym, or on the road

If you take your workouts seriously, nutrition should be top of mind too. Protein is a great place to start, and focusing on getting the right types of protein, in the right amounts, and at the right times is key. Our protein supplement guide will help you meet your wellness goals, potentially improving your performance on the court, in the gym, or on the road.

What type?

Whey

Whey protein is quick to digest and provides all of the protein building blocks - the amino acids. Our bodies cannot make some amino acids, and whey is ideal for meeting essential amino acid needs. Whey also supplies branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), and some research supports that they aid muscle recovery after hard workouts.

Casein

Compared with whey, casein is slower to digest, and results in a lower, yet more prolonged rise in blood amino acid levels, which may provide a particular advantage for body builders. At least one study supports that casein outshines whey in terms of promoting strength and lean body mass gains in people following a structured weight-training plan.

Rice

Rice protein is less likely to create allergic reactions than other proteins, and it comes from a plant, making it appropriate for vegetarians. Another potential advantage is that rice protein contains a high proportion of arginine, an amino acid that can dilate blood vessels, possibly enhancing blood flow to muscles. Rice is not a "complete" protein however; it doesn't supply all of the essential amino acids. Some products combine rice protein with proteins from sources like soy or milk to make it complete.

Egg

Egg protein is ideal for people who are looking to build new muscle. It has a very high protein efficiency ratio (PER), which is one measure of how well our bodies can use any particular form of protein. The higher the PER, the more efficiently our bodies can use that protein when we eat it. Egg is off the charts in terms of PER. Egg protein also is a complete protein, and is a good source of essential and branched chain amino acids. Egg protein powder is made from egg whites, and comes in a convenient, pasteurized powder form.

Soy

Soy protein is a high-quality plant protein that provides all essential amino acids, making it a good option for vegetarians. For the body to best utilize soy protein, vegetarians should also eat grain or dairy within a few days. Soy protein comes in two basic forms: soy protein isolate and soy protein concentrate. Soy protein isolate is the most highly purified form, and has a minimum protein content of 90%. Soy protein concentrate contains more carbohydrates, and has a protein content of approximately 70%. Concentrates tend to cost a little less, but if you find soy protein concentrate doesn't agree with you, try isolate, which is easier for some people to digest.

How much?

With protein, as with many nutrients, more is not always better. According to Dr. Doug Paddon-Jones, Associate Professor at the University of Texas Medical Branch and Director of Exercise Studies, "30 grams of protein appears to stimulate maximum muscle synthesis. For athletes, each meal and snack is a chance to hit the 30 gram mark, giving your body several opportunities each day to maximize muscle growth and repair."

Another reason to spread protein evenly through the day is simple efficiency. "Given that your body won't use much beyond 30 grams of protein at a time, it doesn't make sense to load up with more than this," says Paddon-Jones.

When?

Breakfast-To support muscle building first thing in the morning, try trading traditional carb-heavy breakfast foods for more protein-rich options, such as a powder protein supplement mixed with milk and cereal.

If you're heading into a long strength-training session-Sipping a casein-based protein supplement prior to and during your workout will give muscles sustained access to amino acids. If taken in the evening, casein can provide a steady supply of amino acids while you're sleeping.

This product worked, im 16 and weigh about 205, this product was great, goood strength gain and speedy recovery time which is great because i lift daily, big fan of muscletech, i feel this product is worth it, the price is higher but i really dont care as mass gainers tend to be a little more expensive. Buy it

I know they have a Mass-tech but it was 5 lb, now this is 7 lb, and has more protein, so i think the bigger the better. Plus you can use your GNC card during the first 7 days of any month and get 20% off your purchase. Great Deal.
